lib/tiny-printf.c: Add tiny printf function for space limited environments

This patch adds a small printf() version that supports all basic formats.
Its intented to be used in U-Boot SPL versions on platforms with very
limited internal RAM sizes.

To enable it, just define CONFIG_USE_TINY_PRINTF in your defconfig. This
will result in the SPL using this tiny function and the main U-Boot
still using the full-blown printf() function.

This code was copied from:
http://www.sparetimelabs.com/printfrevisited
With mostly only coding style related changes so that its checkpatch
clean.

The size reduction is about 2.5KiB. Here a comparison for the db-mv784mp-gp
(Marvell AXP) SPL:

Without this patch:
  58963   18536    1928   79427   13643 ./spl/u-boot-spl

With this patch:
  56542   18536    1956   77034   12cea ./spl/u-boot-spl

Note:
To make it possible to compile tiny-printf.c instead of vsprintf.c when
CONFIG_USE_TINY_PRINTF is defined, the functions printf() and vprintf() are
moved from common/console.c into vsprintf.c in this patch.

This option enables a tiny, stripped down printf version.
This should only be used in space limited environments,
like SPL versions with hard memory limits. This version
reduces the code size by about 2.5KiB on armv7.
The supported format specifiers are %c, %s, %u/%d and %x.
